What To Expect

Otrobanda

Discover Otrobanda’s colorful streets and stunning murals, where art and history come alive. Otrobanda is one of the historically important quarters of Willemstad, the capital of Curaçao. The district was developed in the 18th century and picked up in the early 19th century when the once walled city of Punda became overpopulated. Otrobanda was connected to Punda in 1888 via the Queen Emma Bridge (affectionately known as "The Swinging Old Lady") and in 1974 by the Queen Juliana Bridge.

I initially booked the city walking tour, but due to the company not meeting the minimum guest requirement, they offered me the Colors and Flavors tour instead, which I accepted—and I’m so glad I did! The tour was great from start to finish. Our guide, Naomi, was amazing—funny, engaging, and extremely knowledgeable. She kept the group entertained while also sharing interesting facts and local history throughout the experience. One of the highlights was stopping at the distillery, where we got a tour and were able to sample some of the products. We also made a stop near downtown, which gave us a chance to take in the scenery and explore a bit. Overall, this was a fantastic experience and I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Curaçao!

The walking tour was fascinating! My guide was Nicole. She kindly picked me up directly from the hotel and showed me the Downtown of Willemstad, including its historical buildings, the slavery museum, the quay, the local market and cafeteria, where to buy souvenirs and much more. Nicole, who was raised in Curacao, is a good story-teller who is rich in knowledge about local history, culture and languages. I really enjoyed the tour and I highly recommend it. P.S. Nicole takes very nice photos)
